Sage 930A test set found at electronics flea market today

Hi all-

At the monthly electronics flea market near me today, a seller had a Sage 930A in nice physical condition, and the price was right (US$45). So, I took a chance on it. I checked its option list, and it has the "good ones" for analog phone testing, numbers 01 and 13, among others.

Now, I just need to find a couple of WECO 310 plugs/cables to test it. Those are not too easy to find now, it seems. It does have posts to connect a test set ("butt set") on the front panel, maybe I can work with just those, after some manual reading.

Any comments or suggestions about this device are welcome, thanks.

Thank you for the notes, ka1axy. I should update this topic; I did find out that these plugs have several names as you mentioned. I got some jumpers with a plug on each end, and I made a couple of nice adapters. I will post a picture later.
